Billie Holiday — Deep Song lyrics
The page contains the lyrics of the song "Deep Song" by Billie Holiday.
Lyrics
Lonely grief is hounding me Like the lonely shadow hounding me ItЂ™s always there just out of sight
Like a fragling tree on a lightening night
Lonely wind cries out my name
Sad as haunted music in the rain
ItЂ™s born of grief and born of woe
But I hear it call and IЂ™ve got to go Where can I be headed for
The blues call in my north
To lick my heart once more
Love lives in a lonely land
Where thereЂ™s no helping hand to understand
Why does it bring this hate to me Why it donЂ™t matter why
I only know misery has to be part of me Never hope to count on love
To be a partner of that heaven above
Never hope to understand
Love is a barrel land
A lonely land, a lonely land
